Black Tip Dive Resort are located in quiet and relaxed Aow Tanote on the east side of the island. In Tanote Bay, renowned for its snorkeling, you will be able to spot some of our usual residents: turtles, parrot fish, Blue Spotted Stingrays, Jenkins Whip Rays, butterfly fish, scorpion fish, file fish and of course the Black Tip Reef Sharks, for which our resort is named.
Away from the crowds, with a relaxed, unspoiled beach, it is renowned by snorkelers and divers for its abundance of marine life and clear visibility. We have several types of bungalows available and all rooms come with hot water, western toilet and 24 hour electricity.

About the hotel:
Nice enough place to stay. I was looking for quiet, warm water, and good snorkeling. Even though this is the quietest island in the area, and Black Tip is on the far side of the island from the port, I was looking for something even more pristine/remote. Snorkeling/ocean was OK, but not great (I went to Sail Rock, etc., a number of places). No direct view from the rooms of the ocean, but very close. Everything on the island is expensive, bring food, etc. with you if you can.

About the hotel:
Great position and good restaurant. Staff very helpful and cheerful. Free wifi and water. Rooms fine but set in jungle so unable to sit on patio without mossies. Wonderful snorkelling straight off the beach. Road to resort is unmade and quite an experience!

About the hotel:
Tanote is 5km away from Mae Haad.The journey to Tanote is an adventure(miserable street).The Black Tip is directly located on the beach.The bungalows are all located in a jungle.Tanote is the best place in Koh Tao for snorkeling (directly from the beach).Problem is, Tanote is a very isolated place (for trips to other bays,it was only possible to order Longtail-boats from Mae Haad (very expensive).For this reason,we finished after 3 nights our stay in the Black Tip and we moved to the Sunset Buri Hotel on the Sairee Beach (very good decision).

About the hotel:
I chose a Deluxe Bungalow w/A.C..Clean and tidy but the A.C. always shut down all night long due to the weak electricity power compressor,even the lights and electric fan wre affected.Environment & swimming pool were good.Resort staffs were fair but restaurant s staffs were nice.Resort s drivers were very helpful.They picked up customers at the pier in time.Fishes at Koh Tao were lesser & smaller than before since more people s visits caused more corals damaged & more pollutions.
About the reservation service:
Easy & convenient. Reasonable price.

About the hotel:
Hotel très sympathique, quoiqu un peu isolé. Plage parfaite pour le snorkeling mais pas pour la baignade. La route d accès est abominable, du coup on reste à Tanote Bay. Les chambres sont bien, dans un super jardin. Le personnel de l hotel est très sympathique.
About the reservation service:
comme sur des roulettes no problem, perfect

About the hotel:
Silence finds the visitor in an oasis of bliss on this remote-like island. For the Honeymooner, the novice of the sea, or the experienced diver, Black-Tip is the answer to a vacation that encompasses the Thai saying Cha-Cha - to go slowly. The staff are attentive, well versed in the ways of foreigners and brave in speaking in the English tongue. Smiles are abundant here, as is the beauty that the Black-Tip Resort shares with all who come to escape the hustle and bustle of life.
About the reservation service:
Simply efficient, from the pick-up at the ferry, to taxiing around the island. Great job in a country where one can expect things to go wrong!
